Like something out of Greek myth.

Great background info on her, perfect addition to the post, cheers.<BR/><BR/>Celtic, awesome + humorous info, insightful interpretations of those images too, feel free to use any of my images in your posts which will no doubt be as interesting as yours always are. <BR/><BR/>Cheers all!Benjamin Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15474017723701619280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428463385743792669.post-44791282390472071272008-06-22T18:06:00.000-07:002008-06-22T18:06:00.000-07:00Wow!.

Why does she repeat "bigger is better" in the middle of it? (Rhetorical) Having lived in Brasil, I'll tell you the common spelling is "Gisele" .. so I think you hit on something with the Disney choice<BR/><BR/>The "sticky liquid" facial is outrageous! And, the Manhole, was the name of a gay bar I recall from some town. Not much imagination required there. Combine that with "pulling tails" and anyone who's read up on dissociative sexual programming of children can see there are truely sick minds working within Disney. <BR/><BR/>One of my upcoming works looks at the cute heart/love symbol females are programmed with. That <A HREF="http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/5160/vlcsnap4954847xd2.jpg" REL="nofollow">closing shot</A> of all the animals voyeuriing as the two lovers unite at the apex of the V just reeks of these ritualistic sex practices. Note also that <A HREF="http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/2439/vlcsnap7722668xm3.jpg" REL="nofollow">in this shot</A>, the girls's butterfly wings are not visible in the mirror, yet her alter in the background, has a butterfly covering her Vagina/Vulva/V. <BR/><BR/>There has never been anything like Enchanted." Indeed!<BR/><BR/>Pink castles with arched entranceways.

I always though she was rather porcelain dollish. Born on a military base and raised Mormon and had early training as a ballerina. She also had a very interesting quote attributed to her, " I have worked with some of the meanest people in the world. You can't do anything to intimidate me."

Well done!!<BR/>..I only mention this as a typo, you have Lola instead of Leela when referencing Futurama...but everything is broken down incredibly. Excellent work and THANK YOU for all the hard work. It is exhaustive isn't it? Onward and upward! You've done extensive hard work on revealing the MC hidden within. Kudos!<BR/><BR/>Keep it real and be well!<BR/>peace bro!Michael Skaggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10915563179964525619noreply@blogger.com
